Rapid advances in computer and communication technologies have resulted in data networks that reach virtually every part of the planet. Industries routinely require employees, service providers, and other individuals with specializations, to competently complete specific work projects or to comply with regulations, as just two examples. Therefore, service providers face increasing demands to certify their employees. However, it is quite difficult to build targeted/critical competencies at scale, particularly given the situation with prior certification programs. Technical improvements in system architectures will facilitate supporting the growing complexity and advanced administration of maturing certification capability and will also be flexible and responsive to business needs.
